agree to disagree.   These are investments.  It's what Tepper does.   It's all he really is respected for.  

MLS won't be a massive loser.  The increase in valuation of professional sports teams has been insane over just a very short period of time.   Which is why Tepper parked his money in the Panthers....and it ups his status among his peers.

Ok.  You are right.  The billionaire no longer cares about making money first and foremost.  

He bought the team strictly so he could prioritize your team winning a Super Bowl above all.  A community he has no ties to.  And he is just lighting 2+ billion of his 15 billion networth on fire for fun....because apparently that is what 60 year old billionaires do.

Here's the primary guy you absolutely don't want having Tepper's contact info.

(that'd be Lifetime stalker movie material)

I met Tepper once.  So we basically are best friends by my defintion of best friends.

Now that's quite funny coming from a guy who spent hours composing a 2-page, 26-paragraph, 737-word screed about why David Tepper is the devil -- talk about a fixation 😲

That said...good to see you back at full-strength...after a 45-day read-only sabbatical you've certainly made up for lost time with 1,575 posts since...that's 41 per day, every single day (I bet you can get the overall daily average up to 42 before midnight 😉)...

...gentlemen, to put this into perspective, miss a single day and you have to put up 82 posts the next day to keep the pace...this is what it takes to get to 513,492 posts... 

...a truly elite performance 🥇🏆🙌🍻

Rhule will stay and there's nothing anyone can do about it, and it will turn out to be a good decision. Cam and Rhule will be in SB57 with Carolina and this board will be, officially, fuging retarded.

Do you have a numeric formula that proves this? 😐

Charlotte FC has a huge chance of failure. I don’t see Charlotte supporting an MLS team very well, especially one playing in an NFL sized stadium (yes I know they block off seats and modify the stadium). I see Charlotte FC being at the bottom of attendance in MLS next season. 

In stark contrast to last seasons MLS expansion team, Austin FC. I have season tickets and have seen first hand how well they built their fanbase and engaged the community. They were smart steering headfirst into targeting Hispanics who are already soccer fans with chants and team mottos in Spanish. The result was Austin FC was 5th in attendance in MLS in their inaugural season. 

I don’t see anywhere close to the level of success Austin FC has had generating new fans happening in Charlotte. Austin doesn’t have another professional sports team so it was ripe for a team to latch onto. Tepper is already hated for turning the Panthers into a miserable laughing stock so he won’t be getting many cross over fans. And I just don’t see anyone really giving a poo about the team. 

I bet Charlotte FC sucks ass, struggles to sell tickets, and the team only survives because of Tepper’s big pockets.

They're trying to sell PSLs for lower level tickets, it will be THE BOTTOM of the league in attendance. The Hornets have a hard time selling their tickets with NO PSLS.

Charlotte might not support it great. 

But basically pick any bad professional team in existence....and look at their valuation 10 years ago vs today.    That's all I am saying.    In 10 years the Jags went from like 700 mill  to 2.2 billion.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
